Anyone trying to run weekly evansville shows better be ready to either A, have crappy shows most of the time or B lose a crap load of money. Its going to be hard to out do CCW on wed night. They have a core fanbase and no overhead. Think about it.

Actually, the more i think about it, whats wrong with a non wrestler booking a show. Its not like its rocket science. I mean if you have been around wrestling all your life and watched it all your life, i dont see the problem. I dont think Vinny Mac every worked a match before he took over WWF and that turned out ok. That being said, i have ZERO idea who is being talked about here and it could indeed be a train wreck. With CCW, thats a solid bet.

There is NOTHING wrong with a mark getting trained and entering into the wrestling business. That's 80% of the people in the wrestling world (20% being former models who never even watched a wrestling program that WWE turns into wrestlers). But there's EVERYTHING wrong with a regular Joe Blow Mark paying his way into a booking/promoting position with NO training or prior experience. Maybe the Ackers are just counting on this being interesting enough for people to want to come see the train wreck

2 Tuff Tony is doing the booking. The guy who put money down is named Sammy. I was at last nights show and they probably had one of the biggest non legends show crowds I've seen.
They also had some younger guys like JP. and Simon Sezz plus some others. I wish I could list them, but they have a crappy p.a. system.You would think the Ackers would take some of the money they received and pay for a decent one.
I will comment on the Jamie being gone later. I can say Buzz is gone also. Brian came out and threw a fit about people saying CCW was under new management and that nobody would take over the company his brother built. My understanding this is a 5 week deal between Ackers and this guy named Sammy.I will comment more on Ackers speech later hard to understand with their pa.

Sounds decent to me. Tony, JP and Simon are all solid names. There is no way it could be worse than what they were running. Lookin forward to hearing more about the show. Are we talkin about Sammy, like CCW superfan Sammy??

Ike the talent is pretty much the same as it was with the exceptions of JP. Simon Sezz and a couple of guys that I believe came with Simon.They had a pretty decent match. I wish I could tell you more but like I said the Mic and p.a. where really crappy . They did bring in one terrible tag team. Hopefully they are not brought back.
I was told the card was on their facebook sight I can not find it. If anybody can find it will you please post it?
Sorry about not being able to post everything at once but working all weekend only able to post when I can.Still more posting Sunday night.

justSayin your are right it is Sam instead of Sammy. Okay let me give you all the low down on Jamie as I know it. Jamie booked his and Bill's match with Lawler and Christopher second to last. This should have been a red flag. The other red flag was that Jerry Lawler looked to be In a Mood that night. From what I have heared Jamie

Sorry do not know what happen there all of sudden with out pushing a button my post was done. Anyway Jamie skipped out the back door with the money and most not getting paid.Buzz new about this and that is why he is gone. I can see why the Ackers where mad even though I believe Mark Acker is a jerk and thats being nice. Jamie did not think the Ackers deserved money because they where just going to pocket the money and to that I say so. Even though it is said the Ackers do not pay rent I can not blame them for being mad at Jamie. My understanding was Lawler got ripped off two. So if you where a wrestler would you want to work for Jamie. I mean could you trust him I know his wife better not going to say more than that.

So perfectstorm since u know everything, how the hell do you know Jamies wife cant trust him? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Quit being a mark and acting like u know everything just cuz u hear some b u l l s h i t from people. Remember this believe nothing u hear and half of what u see my friend, and you will be doing good.

gman1 First of all I do not think I know everything nor do I try to act like I do, but when I do say something I do not say it blindly, but have several credible sources and take the time to gather as much information as possible. I am done talking about Jamie or any thing to do with him and would rather focus my words on wrestling and what can be done to make local wrestling better.
I do thank you for the advise and your comments.However calling people marks is really getting old and over played, because everybody who watches or has anything to do with wrestling is pretty much a mark. This is not directed at you but just thinking out loud is being called a mark a bad thing.When I hear that word I am like OK so.

I hear its going to be Alister Fear v Jboy this week in a barbed wire match. Looks like CCW is going back to some hardcore roots. I can dig some Alister Fear hardcore......Jboy, not so much. Bring Simon and JP back with Mitch and Tracy, throw in some hardcore and you may have some watchable shows.
